Optimising digital mental health care: how is technology used in practice

This project aims to develop the first national consensus statement on the use of technology in mental health care in Australia, by examining how digital therapy programs are currently used by Australian health practitioners, and synthesising this data with international evidence and input from Australian government, health service, and digital health experts. This project expects to improve the implementation of digital therapy tools using an innovative, theory-driven approach. Expected outcomes of this project include increased and optimal implementation of digital therapy tools among mental health care providers and enhanced capacity within the Australian health system to meet the high demand for services in the community.
